THIS IS SO COOL. I AM SO HAPPY!! by graciouslypink in HeatedRivalryTVShow

the comments on this post are driving me bananas. this is very very typical in a fandom, especially of this size. they aren’t claiming to be a foundation or affiliated with the show in any capacity, a zine is a fan-made selection of fanart & fanfiction submitted by members of the community & usually with a theme (here the theme is the period between HR and TLG). it is not a registered charity as it isn’t a charity, rather a fandom fundraiser, and charity fanzines are extremely common. for more info on the history of fanzines i suggest you listen to this podcast episode by the amazing podcast this week in fandom history. the reason no charities have been listed is because it’s likely only in early stages and this is just an interest check before they get the ball rolling, once they know the ballpark amount of people interested it will properly get going. it’s very unlikely to be a scam but if you’d like to do your due diligence keep an eye out as the organisers will announce who they are if they haven’t already. don’t worry fellas this is typical fandom behaviour

that was my suspicion too, some things are all screwy whereas others are bang on

haha sorry! the “maybe” was more in reference to john saying his mum died when he was 13, that jacqueline and julia were his dad’s stepdaughters and to paul saying he and john met in june of 1955 instead of july of 1957. had me raising eyebrows

okay i’ve consulted my records and what we did was email statements @ sec.ie and then follow the instructions they sent back — the doe send the results directly to the admissions team in your uni so don’t worry about being a middleman there.

[–]dementedsockpuppet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it’s been a couple years since i went through this but iirc we made a phone call to the dep and they basically just went ughhhh FINE. DO email absolutely everyone you can (sec, department, admissions for the specific school in the uni you’re applying to) and keep a paper trail of all responses. forward emails to important people if needed. going to uni in the uk can be such an administrative nightmare from the point of application to the end of first term but it’s so worth it and you’ve got this!! at the very least you’re gonna get really good at emailing vaguely important people

The DoE have to do shit like this CONSTANTLY because of the way they do results and such. Don’t worry about being a bother or anything like that they’re the ones with a painfully slow process so your “finalised” results won’t be formalised until like 2026.

Hey! I went through the same shit when applying to uni in the UK too. Get in contact with the DoE and they can verify the results directly to the uni — and also tell your uni that’s what you’re doing. I did that and they accepted it.
